Jaws: The Revenge 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras 

Universal's Jaws: The Revenge Limited Edition SteelBook's design is very much in keeping with the previous Jaws 2 4K and Jaws 3 4K + 3D Limited Edition SteelBook SteelBooks from the series. The front cover features a sailboat, the Neptune's Folly, heading for the shark as seen from a point of view inside the shark's mouth. Menacing rows of teeth encircle the image. The film's logo, in large red block letters, resides just above the boat and just below the upper teeth. The reverse side features the same boat sailing in the open sea with the ship's masts replacing the shark fin from the previous two releases. The white spine sports the logo in the same easy-to-read large red book letters. The SteelBook's matte finish again has a nice feel and should resist fingerprints very well.

Opening the SteelBook, the two discs are located on the right side, and each disc is housed on its own offset stacked hub, with the 4K disc on top. Removing both discs, one can enjoy a panoramic still from the movie of Lance Guest and Mario Van Peebles swimming toward Lorainne Gary who is aboard the Neptune's Folly on the left panel. Michael Caine is with his sinking plane on the right panel.

On-disc bonus features are brought forward from the previous Blu-ray release and consist of the following:

• Alternate Ending (3.42) - A slightly less optimistic and humorous ending than what was ultimately used for the film.

• Theatrical Trailer (1.06) - Original theatrical trailer in SD.

Jaws: The Revenge 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation 

Fans of the film will enjoy the Jaws: The Revenge 4K Limited Edition SteelBook and will no doubt be pleased with the 4K transfer and Dolby Atmos track of the strangest chapter of the Jaws franchise. The special features remain as anemic as ever. Recommended.
